![]() Gearbox Software, founded by former 3D Realms team members, then got involved. ![]() Many of those team members decided to keep working on the game at their homes under the Triptych Studios banner. In 2009, 3D Realms and the game's publisher 2K Games got into a court battle over the rights to Duke Nukem Forever that caused 3D Realms to lay off its internal development team. After that there was almost nothing released from 3D Realms about Duke Nukem Forever even though the game was still in development. The next screenshots and a gameplay video were released in 2001, again at E3. Just a few weeks after E3 1998, 3D Realms announced it had switched over to using Epic Games' Unreal Engine to make the game. It first showed off screenshots (using id Software's Quake 1 engine) back in 1997, and in 1998 it actually showed a demo at E3 behind closed doors. It's been a long, long time since the game's original developer 3D Realms started working on the game. 2K Games sent over word via a press release that Duke Nukem Forever, the long awaited sequel to 1996's Duke Nukem 3D, has finally "gone gold', meaning that the game's main development has been completed and is now being replicated onto disks for its release for the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 platforms. Today a game that's been in development for 15 years is finally completed.
